dc.description.abstract |
Ritual activity constitutes one religious practice that pervaded ancient
cities like Ostia, Rome’s ancient port. Despite the extensive surviving evidence
at Ostia for religious practice, the ways in which the urban landscape
shaped religious movement has not received previous attention.
This article focuses on how economic activity may have helped to structure
areas of ritual movement throughout the city. Using the Urban Network
Analysis Toolbox developed for ArcGIS, areas of economic activity
are studied by applying betweenness centrality to determine ‘hotspots’ of
movement. These ‘hotspots’ can be used as nodes for undertaking further
study of processional movement. The preliminary results suggest that the
proposed methodology can enrich archaeological investigations into ritual
movement and religious landscapes. |
